Absent Place-an April Day
by Emily Dickinson
927
Absent Place-an April Day-
Daffodils a-blow
Homesick curiosity
To the Souls that snow-
Drift may block within it
Deeper than without-
Daffodil delight but
Him it duplicate-

Poems by Emily Dickinson
Above Oblivions Tide there is a Pi
Abraham to kill him-
Absence disembodies-so does Death
Absent Place-an April Day
Adrift A little boat adrift
Advance is Lifes condition
Afraid Of whom am I afraid
After all Birds have been investig
After a hundred years
After great pain a formal feeling
After the Sun comes out
Again-his voice is at the door
Ah Moon-and Star
Ah Necromancy Sweet
Ah Teneriffe
Air has no Residence no Neighbor
All but Death can be Adjusted
All Circumstances are the Frame
All forgot for recollecting
All I may if small
All men for Honor hardest work
All overgrown by cunning moss
All that I do
All these my banners be
All the letters I can write
All things swept sole away
Alone and in a Circumstance
Alone I cannot be
Alter When the Hills do
Although I put away his life
Always Mine
Ambition cannot find him
Ample make this Bed
And this of all my Hopes
And with what body do they come-
Angels in the early morning
Answer July
An altered look about the hills
An antiquated Grace
An Antiquated Tree
An awful Tempest mashed the air
An honest Tear
An Hour is a Sea
An ignorance a Sunset
Apology for Her
Apparently with no surprise
Arcturus is his other name
Are Friends Delight or Pain
Arrows enamored of his Heart-
Artists wrestled here
Art thou the thing I wanted
Ashes denote that Fire was-
As by the dead we love to sit
As Children bid the Guest Good Nig
As Everywhere of Silver
As far from pity as complaint
As from the earth the light Balloo
As Frost is best conceived
As if I asked a common Alms
As if some little Arctic flower
As if the Sea should part
As imperceptibly as Grief
As imperceptibly as Grief1540As im
As One does Sickness over
As plan for Noon and plan for Nigh
As Sleigh Bells seem in summer
As subtle as tomorrow
As Summer into Autumn slips
As the Starved Maelstrom laps the
As Watchers hang upon the East
As we pass Houses musing slow
As willing lid oer weary eye
Papa above
At Half past Three a single Bird
At last to be identified
At least-to pray-is left-is left
At leisure is the Soul
Aurora is the effort
Autumn-overlooked my Knitting
Awake ye muses nine sing me a stra
Away from Home are some and I-
A Bee his burnished Carriage
A Bird came down the Walk
A Burdock-clawed my Gown
A Cap of Lead across the sky
A Charm invests a face
A chilly Peace infests the Grass
A Clock stopped
A Cloud withdrew from the Sky
A Coffin-is a small Domain
A Counterfeit-a Plated Person-
A curious Cloud surprised the Sky
A darting fear-a pomp-a tear
A Day Help Help Another Day
A Death blow is a Life blow to Som
A Deed knocks first at Thought
A Dew sufficed itself-
A Diamond on the Hand
A Dimple in the Tomb
A Door just opened on a street
A doubt if it be Us
A Drop Fell on the Apple Tree
A Drunkard cannot meet a Cork
A Dying Tiger-moaned for Drink
A emWounded em Deer-leaps highest
A face devoid of love or grace
A faded Boy-in sallow Clothes
A feather from the Whippoorwill
A Field of Stubble lying sere
A first Mute Coming
A Flower will not trouble her it h
A full fed Rose on meals of Tint
A fuzzy fellow without feet
A great Hope fell
A happy lip-breaks sudden
A House upon the Height
A Lady red-amid the Hill
A lane of Yellow led the eye
A Letter is a joy of Earth-
A Light exists in Spring
A little bread-a crust-a crumb
A little Dog that wags his tail
A little East of Jordan
A little Madness in the Spring
A little overflowing word
A little Road-not made of Man
A little Snow was here and there
A long-long Sleep-A famous-Sleep
A loss of something ever felt I
A Man may make a Remark
A Mien to move a Queen
A Mine there is no Man would own
A Moth the hue of this
A Murmur in the Trees-to note
A narrow Fellow in the Grass
A nearness to Tremendousness
A Night-there lay the Days between
A Pang is more conspicuous in Spri
A Pit-but Heaven over it-
A Planted Life-diversified
A poor-torn heart-a tattered heart
A precious-mouldering pleasure
A Prison gets to be a friend
A Rat surrendered here
A prompt-executive Bird is the Jay
A Route of Evanescence
A Saucer holds a Cup
A science-so the Savants say
A Secret told
A sepal petal and a thorn
A Shade upon the mind there passes
A shady friend-for Torrid days
A Sickness of this World it most o
A single Clover Plank
A single Screw of Flesh
A slash of Blue
A Sloop of Amber slips away
A soft Sea washed around the House
A solemn thing-it was-I said
A Solemn thing within the Soul
A something in a summers Day
A South Wind-has a pathos
A Sparrow took a Slice of Twig
A Spider sewed at Night
A stagnant pleasure like a Pool
A still-Volcano-Life
A Thought went up my mind today
A throe upon the features
A Toad can die of Light
A Tongue-to tell Him I am true
A Tooth upon Our Peace
A train went through a burial gate
A transport one cannot contain
A Visitor in Marl
A Weight with Needles on the pound
A Wife-at daybreak I shall be
A wild Blue sky abreast of Winds
A Wind that rose
A winged spark doth soar about-
A word is dead
A Word dropped careless on a Page
A Word made Flesh is seldom
A World made penniless by that dep
Back from the cordial Grave I drag
Baffled for just a day or two
Banish Air from Air-
Beauty-be not caused-It Is
Beauty crowds me till I die
Because He loves Her
Because I could not stop for Death
Because my Brook is fluent
Because that you are going
Because the Bee may blameless hum
Because twas Riches I could own
Bees are Black with Gilt Surcingle
Bee Im expecting you
Before He comes we weigh the Time
Before I got my eye put out
Before the ice is in the pools
Before you thought of Spring
Behind Me-dips Eternity
Behold this little Bane-
Belshazzar had a Letter-
Bereaved of all I went abroad
Bereavement in their death to feel
Besides the Autumn poets sing
Besides this May
Best Gains-must have the Losses Te
Best Things dwell out of Sight
Best Witchcraft is Geometry
Betrothed to Righteousness might b
Better-than Music For I-who heard
Between My Country-and the Others
Between the form of Life and Life
Be Mine the Doom-
Bind me-I still can sing-
Birthday of but a single pang
Blazing in Gold and quenching in P
Bless God he went as soldiers
Bliss is the plaything of the chil
Bloom-is Result-to meet a Flower
Bloom upon the Mountain-stated
Blossoms will run away
Bound-a trouble
Bring me the sunset in a cup
Brother of Ingots-Ah Peru-
But little Carmine hath her face
By a departing light
By a flower-By a letter
By Chivalries as tiny
By homely gift and hindered Words
By my Window have I for Scenery
By such and such an offering
Candor-my tepid friend-
Circumference thou Bride of Awe
Civilization-spurns-the Leopard
Climbing to reach the costly Heart
Cocoon above Cocoon below
Color-Caste-Denomination
Come show thy Durham Breast
Come slowly-Eden
Conferring with myself
Confirming All who analyze
Conjecturing a Climate
Conscious am I in my Chamber
Consulting summers clock
Contained in this short Life
Cosmopolities without a plea
Could-I do more-for Thee
Could emI em-then-shut the door
Could Hope inspect her Basis
Snow flakes
Could I but ride indefinite
Could live-emdid em live
Could mortal lip divine
Could that sweet Darkness where th
Count not that far that can be had
Crisis is a Hair
Crisis is sweet and yet the Heart
Crumbling is not an instants Act
Dare you see a Soul at the White H
Dear March-Come in-
Deaths Waylaying not the sharpest
Death is a Dialogue between
Death is like the insect
Death is potential to that Man
Death is the supple Suitor
Death leaves Us homesick who behin
Death sets a Thing significant
Death warrants are supposed to be
Declaiming Waters none may dread-
Defrauded I a Butterfly
Delayed till she had ceased to kno
Delight-becomes pictorial
Delights Despair at setting
Delight is as the flight
Denial-is the only fact
Departed-to the Judgment
Deprived of other Banquet
Despairs advantage is achieved
Dew-is the Freshet in the Grass-
Did lifes penurious length
Did Our Best Moment last
Did the Harebell loose her girdle
Did We abolish Frost
Did we disobey Him
Did you ever stand in a Caverns Mo
Distrustful of the Gentian
Distance-is not the Realm of Fox
Dominion lasts until obtained-
Dont put up my Thread and Needle
Doom is the House without the Door
Doubt Me My Dim Companion
Down Times quaint stream
Do People moulder equally
Drab Habitation of Whom
Dramas Vitallest Expression is the
Dreams-are well-but Wakings better
Dreams are the subtle Dower
Dropped into the Ether Acre
Drowning is not so pitiful
Dust is the only Secret
Dying at my music
Dying Dying in the night
Dying To be afraid of thee
Each Life Converges to some Centre
Each Scar Ill keep for Him
Each Second is the last
Each that we lose takes part of us
Eden is that old-fashioned House
Elijahs Wagon knew no thill
Elizabeth told Essex
Embarrassment of one another
emOne Life em of so much Consequen
Empty my Heart of Thee
emSpeech em-is a prank of emParlia
Endanger it and the Demand
Ended ere it begun-
Endow the Living-with the Tears
Escape is such a thankful Word
Escaping backward to perceive
Essential Oils-are wrung
Estranged from Beauty-none can be-
Except the Heaven had come so near
Except the smaller size
Except to Heaven she is nought
Exhilaration-is within
Exhilaration is the Breeze
Expanse cannot be lost-
Expectation-is Contentment
Experience is the Angled Road
Experiment escorts us last-
Experiment to me
Extol thee-could I Then I will
Exultation is the going
Facts by our side are never sudden
Fairer through Fading-as the Day
Faith-is the Pierless Bridge
Faithful to the end Amended
Faith is a fine invention
Falsehood of Thee could I suppose
Fames Boys and Girls who never die
Fame is a bee
Fame is a fickle food
Fame is the one that does not stay
Fame is the tine that Scholars lea
Fame of Myself to justify
Far from Love the Heavenly Father
Fate slew Him but He did not drop-
Few yet enough
Finding is the first Act
Finite-to fail but infinite to Ven
Fitter to see Him I may be
Floss wont save you from an Abyss
Flowers-Well-if anybody
Follow wise Orion
Forbidden Fruit a flavor has
Forever-it composed of Nows
Forever at His side to walk
Forever honored by the Tree
Forget The lady with the Amulet
Fortitude incarnate
For Death-or rather
For each ecstatic instant
For every Bird a Nest
For largest Womans Hearth I knew
For this-accepted Breath
Four Trees-upon a solitary Acre
Frequently the wood are pink
Frigid and sweet Her parting Face-
From all the Jails the Boys and Gi
From Blank to Blank
From Cocoon forth a Butterfly
From his slim Palace in the Dust
From Us She wandered now a Year
Funny-to be a Century
Further in Summer than the Birds
Garland for Queens may be
Gathered into the Earth
Given in Marriage unto Thee
Give little Anguish
Glass was the Street-in tinsel Per
Glee-The great storm is over
Glory is that bright tragic thing
Glowing is her Bonnet
God gave a Loaf to every Bird
God is a distant-stately Lover
God is indeed a jealous God-J
God made a little Gentian
God made no act without a cause
God permits industrious Angels
Going to Heaven
Going to Him Happy letter
Good Morning-Midnight
Good night because we must
Go tell it-What a Message-
Good Night Which put the Candle ou
Good to hide and hear em hunt
Go not too near a House of Rose-
Go slow my soul to feed thyself
Go thy great way
Go travelling with us
Gratitude-is not the mention
Great Caesar Condescend
Great Streets of silence led away
Grief is a Mouse
Growth of Man-like Growth of Natur
Guest am I to have
Had I known that the first was the
Had I not seen the Sun
Had I not This or This I said
Had I presumed to hope
Had this one Day not been
Had we known the Ton she bore
Had we our senses
Have any like Myself
Have you got a Brook in your littl
Heart not so heavy as mine
Heart We will forget him
Heaven-is what I cannot reach
Heavenly Father-take to thee
Heaven has different Signs-to me
Heaven is so far of the Mind
Her-last Poems
Herein a Blossom lies
Here where the Daisies fit my Head
Her breast is fit for pearls
Her face was in a bed of hair
Her final Summer was it
Her Grace is all she has-
Her little Parasol to lift
Her Losses make our Gains ashamed-
Her smile was shaped like other sm
Her sovereign People
Her spirit rose to such a height
Her Sweet turn to leave the Homest
Her sweet Weight on my Heart a Nig
He ate and drank the precious Word
He forgot-and I-remembered
He fought like those Whove nought
He found my Being-set it up
He fumbles at your Soul
He gave away his Life
He is alive this morning-
He lived the Life of Ambush
He outstripped Time with but a Bou
He parts Himself-like Leaves
He preached upon Breadth till it a
He put the Belt around my life
He scanned it-staggered-
He strained my faith
He told a homely tale
He touched me so I live to know
He was my host-he was my guest
He was weak and I was strong-then
He went by sleep that drowsy route
He who in Himself believes
High from the earth I heard a bird
His Bill an Auger is
His Bill is clasped-his Eye forsoo
His Cheek is his Biographer-
His Feet are shod with Gauze
His Heart was darker than the star
His little Hearse like Figure
His Mansion in the Pool
His Mind like Fabrics of the East
His mind of man a secret makes
His oriental heresies
His voice decrepit was with Joy-
Hope is a strange invention-
Hope is a subtle Glutton-
Hope is the thing with feathers
Houses-so the Wise Men tell me
How brittle are the Piers
How dare the robins sing
How destitute is he
How far is it to Heaven
How firm Eternity must look
How fits his Umber Coat
How fleet-how indiscreet an one-
How fortunate the Grave
How good his Lava Bed
How happy is the little Stone
How happy I was if I could forget
How Human Nature dotes
How know it from a Summers Day
How lonesome the Wind must feel Ni
How many Flowers fail in Wood
How many schemes may die
How many times these low feet stag
How much of Source escapes with th
How much the present moment means
How News must feel when travelling
How noteless Men and Pleiads stand
How ruthless are the gentle-
How sick-to wait-in any place-but
How slow the Wind-
How soft a Caterpillar steps-
How soft this Prison is
How still the Bells in Steeples st
How the old Mountains drip with Su
How the Waters closed above Him
How well I knew Her not
Ideals are the Fairly Oil
Id rather recollect a setting
If all the griefs I am to have
If anybodys friend be dead
If any sink assure that this now s
If Blame be my side-forfeit Me
If emHe dissolve em-then-there is
If ever the lid gets off my head
If He were living-dare I ask
If Im lost-now
If it had no pencil
If I can stop one Heart from break
If I could bribe them by a Rose
If I may have it when its dead
If I shouldnt be alive
If I should cease to bring a Rose
If I should die
If my Bark sink
If Nature smiles-the Mother must
If pain for peace prepares
If recollecting were forgetting
If she had been the Mistletoe
If the foolish call them emflowers
If this is fading
If those I loved were lost
If What we could-were what we woul
